Preface Semi-synchronous replication is supported since MySQL 5.5 and then enhanced gradually in 5.6 & 5.7.It's also called enhanced semi-synchronous replicaiton in MySQL 5.7.The new method of ACK rule in 5.7(after_sync) make the consistency be strongly guaranteed.Maybe that is the reason why it gets the name.Today I'm gonna demonstrate the effect of sevaral variables of semi-sync. Introduce Semi-synchronized replicatin can be installed as a plugin.There're a lot of variables with prefix of "repl_semi_sync" after you install the "rpl_semi_sync_master" plugin on your MySQL server.Meanwhile,there're a series of global status about it as well.Let's see the details about it.

Summay
- The behavior of semi-sync replication depends on the variables that you specified.
- If the value of "rpl_semi_sync_master_wait_no_slave" is "on",the status of semi-sync won't change until it reaches the value of timeout,even though the amount of slaves are less than it in "rpl_semi_sync_master_slave_count".
- If the value of "rpl_semi_sync_master_wait_no_slave" is "off",master won't wait for timeout before it reverts to normal replication when slave decreases to less than the value above.
- In order to observe the result conveniently,I increase the value of "rpl_semi_sync_master_timeout" to 60s.
- In most high consistent scenarios,the value can be tremendous enough to avoid degenerating to asynchronous replication.
- If the degeneration is due to network failure such as instant glitch.The semi-sync status will be ok after the network becomes normal.
- I'm afraid the best practice is to set "rpl_semi_sync_master_wait_no_slave" to "on" and the "rpl_semi_sync_master_timeout" to a comparative value.
